Team Character
The Seattle Sneakers are the coolest team in Golly. Everyone admires their style. Once, as a prank, the entire Seattle Sneakers team wore giant baby diapers to their matches, and acted like it was totally normal. The next day, every other team was wearing giant baby diapers to their matches.
Love of Heights
The Seattle Sneakers live out their motto, "Don't Look Down," in daily life. Many Seattle Sneakers players are world-class amateur extreme splorts enthusiasts in such splorts as such as upside-down tightrope walking or no-plane skydiving. Other players on the Sneakers engage in various forms of strength-building splorts, such as zero-g weightlifting, or psychological endurance splorts, such as long-distance sensory deprivation running. More than a few Seattle Sneakers players hold world titles in various competitive eating splorts.
Friendship with Jersey OSHA Violations
The Seattle Sneakers have developed a friendly relationship with the Jersey OSHA Violations, whose legal team are avid sneakerheads. The Sneakers feed the OSHA Violations Legal Team hot tips on new sneakers that are dropping, and in exchange receive free legal consults and the backing of the best legal team in Golly.
Bonding with OSHA Violations over Extreme Splorts Hobbies
The Jersey OSHA Violations, no strangers to pushing the limits of human endurance or finding themselves in situations involving extreme hazards completely outside the realm of normal human experience, bonded with the Seattle Sneakers over their shared love of extreme splorts and pushing the limits. Players from the Sneakers and OSHA Violations can routinely be found upside-down tightrope walking over Naiagra Falls or attempting to remove components from aircraft engines mid-flight.
